Kanye West’s Standout Monochromatic Moments

It’s no secret that Kanye West is a clotheshorse. The rapper, songwriter, and producer added the title of designer—albeit briefly—in 2011. In celebration of Yeezy’s thirty-seventh birthday, we look to his most memorable monochromatic looks. The bold red suit and coordinating shoes he wore at the 2010 MTV VMAs certainly matched his impassioned mood that night. West started to shift his focus to a neutral palette in 2012, when he and then-fiancée Kim Kardashian attended the Givenchy show as a yin-yang-like duo in black and white. He kept things minimal in all black at Dior—save for his red sneakers—and, judging by the maroon suit and grey duster he wore in Paris, he’s evolving the look. On the eve of his wedding, West knocked it out in a midnight-blue Lanvin two-piece that would have anyone say yes.
